NCT ID NCT07701057
First seen Jul 14, 2026 · Last updated Jul 15, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a smartphone app called MyTherapy, combined with an illustrated educational booklet, can help kidney transplant recipients take their medications correctly and manage their own care. The app sends medication reminders and lets patients track symptoms, while the booklet explains self-care in simple Arabic. Researchers will measure changes in medication adherence and self-management behaviors in 50 adult patients who have had a kidney transplant.
